James,
Great ideas you have there.

Quick recap we did a general demonstration of turning skills for all of the woodworking students at Luther and were going to do a hands on pen turning class with the more advanced students at a later date.

Or, if you can donate a lathe for a demonstrator to use that would also be excellent. We would arrange to meet for transport to and from.
> What the demonstrator turns is up to them. We have about 1.5 hours so something you could completely finish or have ready to apply the finish stage. Last Demo I did a small lidded box, we had branch mushrooms, small birdhouse, pens, etc. Please bring the blanks and tools you need. 
> Also any artistic pieces that can be donated to display for the students, show them the different ways this medium can be worked and embellished.

> Please respond back with any dates that work if you can demo, or any other assets you could loan for use during the Demo.
